Hey<br>
<br>
I should've mentioned that I've changed the taskomatic memory a long
time ago. That seemed to have stopped the crashed back then, though
it was before I added the bigger repositories.<br>
<br>
Current values are: (in /etc/rhn/rhn.conf as the newer spacewalk
versions demand)<br>
<blockquote type="cite">taskomatic.java.initmemory=256<br>
taskomatic.java.maxmemory=2048</blockquote>
<br>
I could of course increase this further, but I'm mostly wondering
why I'm not seeing any OutOfMemory errors anywhere. Not in
taskomatic logs, not in tomcat logs. Everyone having that specific
issue seems to mention those errors, just as the RedHat KB entry
says. I did however notice that my /etc/sysconfig/tomcat6 file had
had the original line with max 256MB memory appended again, probably
overwriting my earlier change to 512MB. Will change it back to 512
and see how it goes.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Jeremy<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hey<br>
<br>
Recently I've started syncing a couple of bigger repositories
(RHEL, CentOS, ...) and since then my taskomatic will almost
systematically crash every time it gets to the "Generating new
repository metadata for channel" stage. When it does, it
usually seems to crash very fast after starting this task for
one of the bigger channels.<br>
<br>
I've already enabled debug logging, but the only errors I'm
getting are:<br>
<b>/var/log/rhn/rhn_taskomatic_daemon.log<br>
<br>
</b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">ERROR | wrapper | 2014/10/31 21:46:46 |

<p class="MsoNormal"><br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Apart from
those I can't seem to find any other error messages (not in
the taskomatic log, not in syslog, not in tomcat logs, ...) at
the same time that could indicate what is going wrong.<br>
<br>
Anyone have any pointers as to where I could look next to
hopefully solve this problem? We're starting to use spacewalk
more and more and taskomatic always crashing is getting to be
an issue. Of course I could use a cronjob to check its status
periodically and restart it if necessary, but that's only a
bandaid solution...</p>
